Mammography

Mammograms can help diagnose breast cancer early, often when it is most treatable. Mammograms can detect any number of things, including changes in breast tissue and abnormalities. At age 40, you should start talking to your doctor about mammograms. Your doctor will let you know when to start screenings and how often you should have them.
